Little is known about genetic risk factors for idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH). We examined whether a copy number loss in intron 2 of the SFMBT1 gene could be shunt-responsive, definite iNPH. Quantitative and digital PCR analyses revealed that 26.0% shunt-responsive iNPH patients (n = 50) had such change, as compared with 4.2% healthy elderly 191) (OR 7.94, 95%CI: 2.82–23.79, p 1.8 x 10−5) 6.3% Parkinson's disease 32) 5.18, 1.1–50.8, 0.038). The present study demonstrates...
A new algorithm for implementation of radix 3, 6, and 12 FFT is introduced. An using this computed in an ordinary (1,j) complex plane the number additions can be significantly reduced; multiplication also reduced. High efficiency derived from fact that, if input sequence favorably reordered, rotating factors treated pairs so that are conjugate to each other.
NAND flash memory is widely used in digital cameras, USB devices, cell phones, camcorders and solid-state drives. Continuous lowering of bit cost, increasing flash-memory-die densities improving performance have helped to expand markets. Recently, there are two different directions meet market demands. One cost increase density the utmost limit, which achieved by 4b/cell [1] or 3b/cell [2]. The other focusing on high reliability. To both demands, we develop a 19nm 112.8mm2 64Gb 2b/cell with...
NAND flash memory use in digital still cameras and cellular phones is driving demand for larger-capacity storage. Moreover, has the potential to replace HDDs. To achieve larger capacity while maintaining low cost per bit, technical improvements feature size area reduction are essential. meet stringent requirements, we develop a 16 Gb 4-level 43 nm CMOS technology. In generation, gate-induced drain leakage (GIDL) influences electrical field on both sides of strings. GIDL causes severe program...

A 64-Gb MLC (2 bit/cell) NAND flash memory with the highest density to date as an memory, has been successfully developed. To decrease chip size, 2-physical-plane configuration 16 KB wordline-length, a new bit-line hook-up architecture, and top-metal-congestion-free optimized peripheral circuit floor plan, are introduced. As result, 151 mm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> die size excellent 79% cell area efficiency is...

Abstract Background Variants in the valosin-containing protein (VCP) gene were identified as one of causes for inclusion body myopathy associated with Paget disease bone and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Previously pathogenic variants VCP are lobar degeneration TDP-43 inclusions (FTLD-TDP) pathologically, but p.Asp395Gly was recently reported to cause familial FTD tauopathy characterized by neurofibrillary tau tangles (NFT) not FTLD-TDP. We describe clinical genetic findings a patient , who...
Cells sense the mechanical properties of their surrounding environment and activate intracellular signaling pathways that play important roles in cell survival, proliferation, differentiation, migration. Migration cells into an injury site is crucial for repair after requires cytoskeletal reorganization remodeling focal adhesions connect cytoskeleton to extracellular matrix. Thus, it possible a directional cyclic stretch stimulation may facilitate wound healing process establish ordered...
Using the electron diffraction technique a radial-distribution study of amorphous evaporated Sb–Se films at various compositions was performed. The interatomic distance linearly increases from 2.34 Å for pure Se to 2.84 an 85 at% Sb alloy. coordination number remarkably in vicinity Sb2Se3. Compared with crystalline phase, decrease and increase are found In alloy composition within rich region, shape first peak radial distribution function is not as symmetrical Se. This asymmetry considered...
Abstract Background Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is an autosomal-recessive lipid storage disorder caused by mutations in the CYP27A1 gene encoding key enzyme bile acid synthesis, sterol 27-hydroxylase. Here, we report two Japanese CTX siblings with a novel compound heterozygous mutation, showing different clinical phenotypes and responses to chenodeoxycholic (CDCA) therapy. Case presentation The proband, 32-year-old man, who had chronic diarrhea, bilateral cataracts, xanthomas,...
NAND flash memories are now indispensable for our modern lives. The application range of the storage memory devices began with digital still cameras and has been extended to USB memories, cards, MP3 players, cell phones including smart phones, netbooks, so on. This is because higher capacity lower cost realized through means technology scaling every year. Emerging markets, such as solid-state drives (SSDs) data-storage servers, require bit cost, program read throughputs, power consumption.
Abstract Objectives Localized autoimmune pancreatitis is difficult to differentiate from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma on endoscopic ultrasound images. In recent years, deep learning methods have improved the diagnosis of diseases. Hence, we developed a special cross‐validation framework search for effective methodologies in distinguishing Methods Data 24 patients diagnosed with localized (8751 images) and 61 (20,584 were collected 2016 2022. We applied transfer convolutional neural...
Abstract Background Predicting the periovulatory period is very important for conception. Current approaches to predicting include monitoring of basal body temperature and urine luteinizing hormone (LH) concentration; however, these methods are time-consuming. Here, we examined potential using vaginal discharge (VD) as a non-invasive means sample collection determining LH surge that indicates ovulation. Methods Urine VD samples were collected from 35 healthy women aged 20–39 years. with...
Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) is a paraneoplastic neurological syndrome that rarely accompanied by seropositivity with combination of multiple antibodies. We herein report 50-year-old man PCD small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). This patient was seropositive for anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase 65, anti-SRY-related HMG-box gene 1 and anti-voltage-gated calcium channel After chemoradiation therapy without immunotherapy, ataxia the trunk limbs markedly improved, along notable...
